Dig Two Graves: A Gripping Crime Thriller (Solomon Gray, #1) by Keith Nixon – Review by Emily Walsh

Dig Two Graves (Solomon Gray, #1)Dig Two Graves
By: Keith Nixon
My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dig Two Graves (Detective Solomon Gray #1) by Keith Nixon was a heart pounding thriller that had me hooked.

My first read by this author and for this series. I have to say I was hooked right away, and I didn’t stop reading until the last page was flipped.

Richly detailed, and emotional, this book will take you on a raw heart clutching ride, from a murder mystery to our MC’s going through the memories of the days following and losing his son. Detective Solomon is a solid character and extremely well rounded and multi layered. Not a perfect person, the flaws make him relatable and realistic.

Having such a strong MC, mixed with an equally as strong and solid plot, you have the perfect storm of books. I was engrossed and absorbed into this book, and frankly I didn’t want it to end. Full of twist turns and misdirections, you will not be bored. This book holds your attention, there is no filler or lulls.

So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that this book is worth your time and energy, and I swear you will not be able to put it down.

Happy Reading

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dig Two Graves (Detective Solomon Gray #1) by Keith Nixon is a raw and dark read but that
is what all the best crime fictions stories are about, right? Add in a cop who has not only
witnessed the worst humanity has to offer but he has had to live through several of the most
tragic and horrific times of his life. Cynical – absolutely. Damaged – you bet ya. Barely
functioning – oh yeah. Keith has woven a magical yet complex thriller where the main
character is complex and broken and everything around him goes from bad to worse and the
intricate plot is a mystery until the very end. The emotions in this book weigh heavily and will
have you all over the place.
The story jumps back and forth from the past to the present as we journey along with the
memories of what was and today as Sol tries to go on with his life. The story is one I couldn’t
put down and had me on the edge of my seat.
Sol is a man who is struggling with a past that will forever haunt him and a job that is a
constant reminder. A life that is empty and cold. I life where there is nothing makes sense.
Dig Two Graves is a must read and will keep you guessing to the very end which will
surprise the heck out of you.

Dig Two Graves A Solomon Gray Novel by Keith Nixon

Five Stars

Holy smoke Batman! I was not expecting this story to grab me this way. Sol is taking hit after hit. Nothing is adding up and lives are on the line. I was drawn into this book like a bug to light. Sol is depressed and can’t seem to get his life together. Multiple murders shines light on to his past mistakes. The author placed every shocking moment perfectly. It was unexpected and down right crazy. My mouth dropped so many times while reading this book. I felt Sol’s pain and wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I hope the author continues stories about Sol. He is a strong character that just needed a break.

5 out of 5 stars

The story Dig Two Graves: A Gripping Crime Thriller (Solomon Gray Book 1) by Keith Nixon is a thrilling mystery book. It is a story that hooks you in from the very beginning and I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the final page. It had me turning pages in suspense wondering what was going to happen next. The book moves at a fast pace. While reading you can’t help but wonder just who is the one responsible for the homicides that are occurring. I felt like I was trying to put together a puzzle. I enjoyed reading about the main character of Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray. He is a man that lost his son. He feels the guilt that he was there and couldn’t stop it. Not knowing if your child is just missing or dead is very trying on a parent and Gray doesn’t always make the best choices when trying to calm his mind and numb the pain. When he is called to the scene of a teenager who has died, Gray can’t help but realize the boy would be the same age as his son. What begins next is an investigation that will lead Gray down dark paths. Will Gray find the shooter of Reverend David Hill and of the other bodies that are now piling up? Read this book to find out. There are many additional characters that you are introduced to in this story. While many of them are workmates there are also those who have their own agenda and I found myself wondering who they really were. Full of drama and suspense this is a book that you don’t want to miss out on. Highly recommended reading. It is the first story in a series and I look forward to reading the next one.

This is a suspense, thriller, mystery that kept me sitting on the edge of my seat just waiting to see what would happen next.

When teenager Nick Buckingham tumbles from the fifth floor of an apartment block, Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray answers the call with a sick feeling in his stomach. The victim was just a kid, sixteen years old. And the exact age the detective’s son was, the son Gray has not seen since he went missing at a funfair ten years ago. Each case involving children haunts Gray with the reminder that his son may still be out there – or worse, dead. The seemingly open and shut case of suicide twists into a darker discovery. Buckingham and Gray have never met, so why is Gray’s number on the dead teenager’s mobile phone?

Gray begins to unravel a murky world of abuse, lies, and corruption. And when the body of Reverend David Hill is found shot to death in the vestry of Gray’s old church, Gray wonders how far the depravity stretches and who might be next. Nothing seems connected, and yet there is one common thread: Detective Sergeant Solomon Gray, himself. As the bodies pile up, Gray must face his own demons and his son’s abduction.

Crippled by loss Gray takes the first step on the long road of redemption. But is the killer closer to home than he realised?

Set in the once grand town of Margate in the south of England, the now broken and depressed seaside resort becomes its own character in this dark police suspense thriller, perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Stuart MacBride, and Peter James.

Dig Two Graves is the first in the Solomon Gray series. Pick it up now to discover whether Gray finds his son in this thrilling new crime series.
